So Much Fun (Lulu)

For a while now my schedule has sucked quite frankly. I have really missed having all the girlz kids around. I was always the one that had the type of schedule that I could jump whenever any of them needed me. but with the way things have been with Mike, work, baseball etc. it seems like all I have been able to say is "no" lately. But this weekend is my weekend with the kids now that we split parenting time and I could say "yes" and it feels so great!

Zaad needed me to babysit while she worked today so the boys just spent the night cuz it makes it easier. Then Reese wanted to spend the night....actually the coversation went like this:

R: (Head down...foot playing with rocks...the sad little voice starts) Since all the kids are spending the night at houses can Lea spend the night?

M: No sweetie cuz Emerson and Riley are spending the night at my house and since Cody isn't there Lea needs to be. Would you like to spend the night at my house?

R: Yeah

M: Ok go "ask" your mom and dad

R: Dad I am spending the night at Aunt Lulu's and you have to pick me up in the morning.

J: What time do I have to pick you up?

R: ummmm 1 o'clock

So Reese joined my clan at the house. We stopped for ice cream on the way home, the kids mentioned popcorn and a movie so I stopped at the store and got popcorn, they played rock band and Play-dough, and we ALL laughed and had a blast!

Needless to say we never did watch a movie but Reese and Lea did eat popcorn (the other 2 just couldnt party any longer and had already fallen asleep). I made a big bed in the livingroom and we all crashed there.

It was so nice to let the kids tear thru the house and make a complete mess without worrying about anyone getting upset that the house wasnt clean or that the kids were making too much noise.

This is what I want my house to be like when all is said and done and I finally get my own place!
